Aquidneck Resilience, representing its core partners, seeks a qualified firm to create a comprehensive Climate Resilience Plan (CRP) for Aquidneck Island. The purpose of this plan will be to organize, prioritize, create action strategies for, and share information on resilience projects across the island, particularly those of island-wide importance, in addition to sharing lessons learned. The consultant should realize the breadth of work that has already been completed and able to be built upon, including, but not limited to, action updates from the state’s Municipal Resilience Program (MRP), the Southeast New England Program (SNEP) Network’s Community Assistance Projects, Aquidneck Island’s completed, but soon to-be-adopted Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP), Naval Station Newport’s Military Installation Resilience Review (MIRR), and the Municipal Comprehensive Land Use Plans.
